Current Design


The mechanical design is done by SolidWorks and was fabricated through the use of a 3D printer. The electronic contain three mechanical pieces: the mask, the tube, and the electronic enclosure. The mask is a standard respirator mask with a 3D Printed cap attachment to attach the tube to the it. The mask will be using a 3M particulate filter. The tube connects to the electronic enclosure. Within the electronic enclosure, it will house the battery, the fan, and the printed circuit board (PCB). The fan of choice is a centrifugal fan as it simplifies the design by taking air from the side opening and directing it upwards. The buttons and LEDs are placed at the top of the enclosure for easy access and communication.
